People's eyes say i'm no damn good

shut down and left lonely

only with the maybe we could

i stay inside cos i'm misunderstood

i can't get no release



i'm shell-shocked from some heavy blows

a stranger to the people i know

who used to say "he never had a down day"

now i'm holding on to can't let gos

and silence brings no peace



because another life

went through my window pane

and i don't know why

i've got a will to burn



in attic rooms i just shut my door (shut my door)

for seven weeks maybe seven more (seven more)

it's like i face a seven-headed whore

the fight's knocked out of me



No measure for grief and I can’t find it with the sound

Break down, to the great god of the hand me down

Holding the past around wound up at the lost and found

where the colors all run to grey



wait a minute and



i'm coming of a down day

colorized, the city plays a double feature today

and life is long, and something is wrong

but i want to know what's going on and on



in another life

cos it's good again

and it will never die

i've got a will to burn

to see you again

it's like another life

it's like I'll not get better

a will to burn



oh the time goes by and i realize, that i'm alright

you thought nothing would be the same

but life comes 'round again

quick wits and all curious

all caught up in what you say

and makes me grab the time

before it slips away



i can't stay and i cannot wait

and i'm grateful to whistle past a grave yard gate

the flicker fade is getting stronger

like when the days start getting longer

i got the rhythm down now in the places we warred

the golden gate is like my diving board

and life is pointless

but what's so wrong with that?



cos there's another life

and a sweeter pain

and it will never die

you got a will to burn

to see you again

it's like another life

i feel the whole thing happen

the will to burn



to see you again

it's like another life

i got another life

i got another life
